Apple may be using more AMD CPU's in the future because of the limitations that the i series has done to the lower end laptops.

But here is what I am thinking, if this deal does happen there will be a lot of $ to be made stock wise. AMD is currently at $9.75, while Intel is $23.50. I could see that if Apple decides to use more AMD chips, (they already do for graphics) I would imagine the stock price of AMD increasing at least a few dollars.

Apple wants a single chip solution for chipset and gpu as they had with Nvidia and the 9400m for the core 2 line. The licensing spat with Intel and Nvidia that bars Nvidia from making Nehalem chips is to blame.

There also could be something on AMD's roadmap that isn't public yet that Apple is interested in.
